DDTP support in APT 0.5.4.9-os1, almost done



Hello Folks,

I'd sent the first version of DDTP support for APT to my
directory. Please fell free to ask and provide patch against this
version.

I know tree issues for some in next release and are bellow:

 - UTF8: The description should be displayed in current locale system
   and not always in UTF8;

 - Show: is very slow because the way of information is stored in
   cache;

 - Language Code failback: if for example, the system was set for
   fr_FR then this should try, if not found, fr only.

For instalation you can use my repositlry in people.d.o with:

             deb http://people.debian.org/~otavio sid apt
           deb-src http://people.debian.org/~otavio sid apt

or apply the diff byself using:

    http://people.debian.org/~otavio/sid/apt/apt-0.5.4.9-os1.diff

To use this, you should include your language code directly in
/etc/apt/apt.conf, for example:

,----[ apt.conf ]
| APT::Acquire::Translation "pt_BR";
`----

If you prefer, you can use the environment and set the LC_MESSAGES for
the language choosen.

And use one of DDTP servers. I'm using the fallowing:

,----[ sources.list ]
| deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-ddtp/ unstable main contrib non-free
`----

TIA,
Otavio
